Perforation of anterior mitral leaflet aneurysm: A rare cause of severe mitral regurgitation

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2016
Mitral valve perforation is a rare cause of severe mitral regurgitation. Infective endocarditis, connective tissue disease, cardiac surgery and aortic regurgitation jet are blaming causes of mitral valve perforation.

Triple valve infective endocarditis - a late diagnosis [PDF]

, 2018
Behcet\u27s disease is a systemic vasculitis of unknown aetiology with cardiac involvement as well as damage to other organs. Whether the sterile valvular inflammation which occurs in this autoimmune disease predisposes to bacterial adhesion and ...

Experience with transesophageal echocardiography for mitral valve plasty in the remote stage after esophagectomy with gastric tube reconstruction via the posterior mediastinal route

JA Clinical Reports, 2023
A 69-year-old male patient with mitral valve prolapse was scheduled for mitral valve plasty. Sixteen years earlier, he had undergone right open thoracotomy for esophageal cancer with subtotal esophagectomy, cervicothoraco-abdominal three-region ...

Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery: State-of-the-art and our experience [PDF]

, 2015
The minimally invasive approach is becoming the standard-of-care for surgery of the mitral valve. As any less invasive strategy, it entails an increased surgical complexity.

Raman Microscopy at the Organic–Inorganic Interfaces in Human Calcified Aortic Valves Shows the Co‐Existence of Whitlockite Crystals and Carbonated Hydroxyapatite‐Mineralized Collagen Fibrils

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study advances our understanding of aortic valve stenosis by capturing spatially resolved chemical and structural changes at the nanoscale. The findings highlight the potential of combined Raman and electron microscopy for understanding calcification mechanisms across diverse tissue types.

Approach to An Unusual Cardiac Mass: Mitral Annulus Caseoma

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
Caseous calcification of the mitral annulus (CCMA) is known to be a rare variant of mitral annulus calcification, a chronic and degenerative process of the mitral valve fibrous ring. It usually carries a benign prognosis.

Intracardiac Calcification - An Interesting Chest X-ray Report. [PDF]

, 2013
We report a case of chest X-ray finding of mitral annular calcification. Mitral annular calcification is a degenerative process involving the fibrous annulus of the mitral valve.

Tricuspid valve annulus surgery during mitral valve surgery

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2018
Tricuspid valve repair at the time of mitral valve surgery is a contemporary topic faced by cardiac surgeons routinely. We and our cardiologist as well as anesthesiologist echocardiographers share the common debate about what to do with leaking tricuspid valve during mitral valve surgery.

Meta‐Rod Mechanical Metamaterials With Programmable Reconfiguration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Existing mechanical metamaterials achieve programmable large deformations in planar square or cubic configurations, restricted by required complex boundary conditions. This research proposes a 1D metamaterial, Meta‐rod, with linear, bending, twisting, area, and volume deformation modes.
